Burkina Faso

Burkina Faso (i/bərˈkiːnəˌfɑːsoʊ/bər-KEE-nəFAH-soh; French:[buʁkina faso]) is a landlocked country in West Africa around 274,200 square kilometres (105,900sqmi) in size. It is surrounded by six countries: Mali to the north; Niger to the east; Benin to the southeast; Togo and Ghana to the south; and Ivory Coast to the southwest. Its capital is Ouagadougou. As of 2014, its population was estimated at just over 17.3million.

Formerly called the Republic of Upper Volta, the country was renamed "Burkina Faso" on 4August 1984 by then-President Thomas Sankara. Residents of Burkina Faso are known as Burkinabé (/bərˈkiːnəbeɪ/bər-KEE-nə-bay). French is an official language of government and business.

Before the conquest of what is now Burkina Faso by the French and other colonial powers during the late 19thcentury the country was ruled by various ethnic groups including the Mossi kingdoms. After gaining independence from France in 1960, the country underwent many governmental changes. Blaise Compaoré was the most recent president and ruled the country from 1987 until he was ousted from power by the popular youth upheaval of 31October 2014. This resulted in a semi-presidential republic which lasted from October2014 to September2015. On 17September 2015 the provisional government was in turn toppled by an apparent military coup d'état carried out by the Regiment of Presidential Security. On 24September 2015, after pressure from the African Union, ECOWAS, and the armed forces, the military junta agreed to step down, and Michel Kafando was reinstated as Acting President.

Al Jazeera

Al Jazeera (Arabic:الجزيرة‎al-ǧazīrahIPA:[æl dʒæˈziːrɐ], literally "The Peninsula", referring to the Arabian Peninsula), also known as JSC (Jazeera Satellite Channel), is a Doha-based state-funded broadcaster owned by the Al Jazeera Media Network, which is partly funded by the House of Thani, the ruling family of Qatar. Initially launched as an Arabic news and current affairs satellite TV channel, Al Jazeera has since expanded into a network with several outlets, including the Internet and specialtyTV channels in multiple languages.

Al Jazeera is among the largest news organizations with 80 bureaus around the world. Al Jazeera is owned by the government of Qatar. While Al Jazeera officials have stated that they are editorially independent from the government of Qatar, this assertion has been disputed.

The original Al Jazeera channel's willingness to broadcast dissenting views, for example on call-in shows, created controversies in the Arab States of the Persian Gulf. The station gained worldwide attention following the outbreak of war in Afghanistan, when it was the only channel to cover the war live, from its office there.

It is a sister channel of the U.S.-based English-language channel Al Jazeera America (AJAM), the Bosnia and Herzegovina-based multi-language Al Jazeera Balkans, and the original, Arabic-language, Al Jazeera (sometimes referred to as Al Jazeera Arabic). The station broadcasts news features and analysis, documentaries, live debates, current affairs, business, technology, and sports, and claims to be the first global high-definition television network.
Al Jazeera English is the world's first English-language news channel to be headquartered in the Middle East. The channel aims to provide both a regional voice and a global perspective for a potential world audience of over one billion English speakers who do not share the Anglo-American worldview.

Instead of being run under one central command, news management rotates between broadcasting centers in Doha and London. At its launch, the station actually had four news centres in the world, in: Washington, D.C., London, Doha, and Kuala Lumpur. Complete news bulletins from Kuala Lumpur stopped on 30 September 2010 and from Washington DC on 28 January 2011; they were replaced by news from Doha. All news inserts from Kuala Lumpur ceased in early 2011 and from Washington DC they ceased on 15 April 2012. By contrast, Al Jazeera English is one of the few global media outlets to maintain an agency in Gaza, and in Harare.

Islamic extremism

Islamic extremism has been defined as any form of Islam that opposes "democracy, the rule of law, individual liberty and mutual respect and tolerance of different faiths and beliefs." Related terms include the ideology of Islamism (Political Islam), "radical Islam" and "Islamic supremacy".

Many oppose the use of term arguing it could "de-legitimize" the faith of Islam or suggest there is something wrong with some aspect of Islam.

Definition

A number of definitions have been offered for Islamic extremism, sometimes using overlapping but also distinct aspects of extreme interpretations and pursuits of Islamic ideology:

The use of violent tactics such as bombing and assassinations for achieving perceived Islamic goals; (see Jihadism (Zeyno Baran prefers the term Islamist extremism).

An extremely conservative view of Islam, which does not necessarily entail violence (see also Islamic fundamentalism; Zeyno Baran, Senior Fellow and Director of the Center for Eurasian Policy at the Hudson Institute, prefers the term Islamism). Key identifiers of the ideology may include:

the concept of belonging to a single Muslim community internationally (the umma),

belief in the legitimacy of jihad, or armed resistance, anywhere in the world, including armed resistance by Palestinians against the Israeli military, (or more sympathetically belief in "resisting attack and occupation through the use of force";

advocating a caliphate, i.e. a pan-Islamic state encompassing many countries.

Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso

What is supposed to be a nice tour through the various museums in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso turns into a bit of a dud. The national museum is closed and the music museum is down for renovations. However, Ouagadougou is a nice place to just wander around even if it means not visiting any museums or doing normal touristy things. One of the things I take in on this day is the beautiful GrandeMosque in Ouagadougou which is absolutely brilliant. Next to the mosque, there are plenty of shops, vendors and heaps of activity. In general, Ouagadougou is about as comfortable as any capital city in west Africa.

Africa Today - Terror in Burkina Faso

The deadly assault scenes that recently played out in Burkino Faso stunned the poor yet normally calm West African nation.
A 12-hour stand-off between troops supported by French forces on the one side and Takfiri militants on the other resulted in multiple deaths.
The al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb militant group claimed responsibility for the attack, saying that the gunmen were from the al-Murabitoun group, which is led by Algerian militant Mokhtar Belmokhtar. They stormed the 147-room SplendidHotel, frequented by foreigners and United Nations staff, taking over a hundred people hostage.
Burkina Faso’s PresidentRoch Marc Christian Kabore declared three days of national mourning and said the country would ‘emerge victorious.’ But just how true are these sentiments? Have leaders in so...

"We told them that the mission was to get Compaore to leave." With these words the youth of Burkina Faso took to the streets and brought an end to the rule of a military junta that had governed for twenty-seven years. One year later and a transitional government is in place, but with many former ministers still in power and the IMF pulling the strings, has revolutionary fervour given way to Realpolitik?
